I think this is a great idea. Not only does it block the view between windows but I feel it adds "length" to the tank.
Love the concept, difficult to pull off. Once the coral grows it will be a challenge to keep it pruned back enough to keep that back wall exposed. Hopefully you can figure out some way to make it work!
Thanks! I hope the distance from the window to the back wall makes it easier to achieve the "ocean feeling" with the blue areas. My nightmare is that we get a swimming pool look ;Nailbiting That's why I hope we can figure out a way to place acrylic sheets there, so it's possible to change if the colour isn't right the first try. And I'm also afraid urchins will eat/fret(?) of the paint on the wall.
Another way is to avoid light on the back part of the tank, but IMO that doesn't give an ocean feeling. On a coral reef there's a lot of light!
